Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the decision of the Kerala High Court which ruled that the qualifications for the post of Lower Division Clerk (LDC) as prescribed by the Kerala Public Service Commission (KPSC) did not include a Diploma in Computer Applications (DCA) as an equivalent qualification. The Court emphasized that the KPSC had the authority to determine the qualifications required for the post and that the notification issued was clear in its stipulations. Consequently, the earlier judgment directing a revision of the notification was set aside, affirming the KPSC's decision to reject applications from candidates with DCA qualifications.
